Agate Gallery
This gallery, and indeed a great deal of the stones worked by us, is Scottish Agate. Scotland may not be globally recognised for its agates, but the abundance, variety and beauty of Scottish Agates is hard to deny.
Our Club collection has a large number of such specimens, collected from almost every area of Scotland. Many of these are on permanent display for viewing in our workshop.
The images below represent a small fraction of the Clubs agate collection, but these have been sorted by location and mounted for display.
